After last week’s cliff hanger our heroes incur the centaurs‘ wrath and are struck with a curse, revisiting a certain recurring earlier theme. Seems like this curse made our heroes even more popular than before, so popular in fact that they need to use stealth to get out of this predicament.

After discovering the works of director Nobuhiko Ōbayashi with his 1983 movie Toki o kakeru shōjo (The Girl Who Leapt Through Time) on the video on demand service Wii no Ma: Cinema no Ma, I came to understand that his early 1980ies movies seem to be intrinsically linked with the rise of otaku culture, that has become so popular in the West, and one of their favorite media, the video game. Toki o kakeru shōjo released close to the Family Computer (Nintendo Entertainment System in the West), Nintendo’s first console, which is also the reason why this movie was the first to be chosen for relase on the above mentioned video on demand service.

Travel wings have become awfully expensive because due to severely limited availablity of the necessary resources demand greatly outstrips supplies. Our heroes will do something about this and help Daedalus out of his predicament. He is bound to pay back the favor later during the adventure.
